18. Jade pendant
In the blink of an eye, the two men were approaching.
Fan Jie forced Xu Xiaofei who tripped him back with one palm, and then raised his hand and threw his flying sword.
He seemed to have poured all his spiritual power and essence into this sword. The spirit sword roared, and halfway through, a light more dazzling than the blazing sun spread from the sword body, forming a huge ball of light.
Towards Shaoyuan and Linyan, the glory is so prosperous that people can't open their eyes.
It's a small nuclear bomb!
This Fan Jie is Fan Buyun's second son. Seeing the tragic death of his father and brother, he didn't say much when he came up, and directly used the move of burning jade. If this trick continues, even if he himself dies without exhaustion, he will be a waste person with broken meridians in the future.
Lin Yan: "......"
He was still using most of his strength to suppress the crazy Shaoyuan, and he couldn't cope with the enemy like this. He simply withdrew all his spiritual power and erected a solid defensive barrier for himself.
The dozen or so water dragons that were entangled in Shaoyuan, without the support of spiritual power, suddenly all collapsed, turning into a torrential downpour and pouring on the surface of Yingyue Lake.
"Boom"
The incandescent white ball of light centered on the flying sword burst open at this moment.
Shaoyuan's huge body like a dark cloud evaporated a small part in an instant.
Even Lin Yan felt a tightness in his chest, the power of this sword's self-explosion was really not small.
As soon as Shaoyuan broke free of his restraints, he threw himself at Fan Jie in a rage.
Fan Jie couldn't even stand still, and poured into the water with his head up to the sky. Xu Xiaofei carried him, tread water on the soles of his feet, jumped out, and narrowly avoided Shaoyuan's blow.
He whistled again.
A loud whistle pierced through the night sky, and then a giant eagle with black wings flew in and caught them steadily.
This is obviously Xu Xiaofei's knot spirit pet.
As soon as he stood on the back of the eagle, he commanded the giant eagle to flee in the opposite direction of Fanjia Villa. It seems that he doesn't want to introduce the mirage into the villa and kill more innocent people.
Shao Yuan followed closely.
Although his sanity has not recovered, he will never let go of this person who has suffered a big loss!
Lin Yan also reluctantly followed.
The eagle flies extremely fast, and with every flick of its wings, a small hurricane emerges from under its wings. This kind of sculpture is called the wind, and what it is best at is flying.
As the protagonist, Xu Xiaofei's various spiritual pets will not be lacking.
Although they fled quickly, Shaoyuan was not slow to chase after them.
This hill-like chaos stretched out its tentacles from time to time to try to catch the Wind Eagle.
Xu Xiaofei manipulated the giant eagle, and every time he hid in great danger.
Lin Yan really wanted to see which side won in the end? But it seems that there is no such opportunity.
In his divine consciousness, a powerful spiritual power had gradually manifested.
It's just a short distance ahead.
If he remembered correctly, this was an old-timer who lived in the Dragon Palace at the bottom of the lake and was meditating and cultivating. If it disturbs him, things will not be easy.
This old-timer is the reserve who saves the protagonist. The wind eagle can't get rid of Shaoyuan, and the staying power of this eagle is not enough, so you can't let the protagonist who is not high enough be damaged here, right?
In order to avoid fighting with that old-timer and causing more trouble, I can't go any further!
As soon as Lin Yan thought in his heart, twelve water dragons broke through the water and once again entangled the huge chaos.
Fortunately, Shaoyuan has been shaved a lot of strength by the self-detonating flying sword, and it will be much easier to suppress him this time.
Shaoyuan was suddenly trapped in place, and although he struggled desperately, he couldn't go any further.
The wind carving castrated quickly, and soon it will be invisible.
At this time, Lin Yan suddenly saw that Xu Xiaofei first checked Fan Jie's state, poured a bottle of elixir into his mouth, patted the head of the giant eagle, and jumped off the back of the eagle.
The wind eagle flew away with Fan Jie, but he flew back in the direction of Lin Yan.
He didn't fly too close to Lin Yan either, and stopped far away. Looking up at the black-pressed mirage, his eyes were deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Then he looked at Lin Yan again.
"Is it you who came with this mirage at the birthday banquet of the Qingyun City Lord?"
"It's me. "Lin Yan said.
"You have a different face. I think it's the same as last time. ”
Lin Yan's current appearance is really inconspicuous.
"Really, do you like that look?" said Lin Yan.
In an instant, he transformed into the weak and handsome young man he had become in the Qingyun City Lord's Mansion.
"Actually, it doesn't matter which appearance you have," Xu Xiaofei seemed to smile a little in his voice, "because I'm afraid none of them are real." I wonder if one day I'll be able to see your true face?"
Lin Yan couldn't help but feel funny.
hasn't seen him for a while, and Xu Xiaofei's sultry ability has also grown.
Does he see anyone flirtatious?
"I'm a man, and my real body is definitely not a beauty who captivates the country and the city, why do you want to see it?"
Xu Xiaofei said: "Because I want to make friends with you." ”
He looked down at his hand, his eyes darkened slightly, and he smiled self-deprecatingly: "I am now a lowly cultivator, you may not look down on me." In the future, if we have a chance, maybe we can be good friends. I know that although you are in the Demon Cult, you are not a wicked person. If you hadn't stopped the mirage at the birthday banquet, my senior brother and I would have died at his hands. This time, you also restrained him and didn't let him rush into Fanjiazhuang to kill people indiscriminately. ”
……
Lin Yan didn't expect to receive a good person card, and he wanted to throw it back in disgust.
"Just because of this?" Lin Yan said, "You are very confident, and you are really not afraid that I will kill you." Or do you think that if I control the mirage demon, I won't have the strength to do anything to you?"
Of course, the truth is that he guessed that as long as he moved his killing intent, the old-timer would immediately appear to save him.
It's the same as Schrödinger's cat, whether the old-timer wakes up or not, whether he comes or not, it's still unknown. But as soon as "Xu Xiaofei is dying" is confirmed, the probability of him "coming" will immediately become a reality.
After all, if Lin Yan really wanted to kill Xu Xiaofei, Xu Xiaofei would have no power to fight back. Their grades are too far apart.
As soon as he makes a move, if he shoots it well, let alone whether Xu Xiaofei can still leave a bloody skin, he probably has to owe him thousands of blood.
"I don't feel murderous in you. Xu Xiaofei said.
The sword cultivator's perception of murderous aura is stronger than that of other monks.
"Some people don't exude murder before they kill someone. Lin Yan said lightly.
He glanced at Xu Xiaofei coldly, and said, "I am a person from the Demon Sect, and I am from two worlds with you. I advise you to draw a line with my evil ways, otherwise, there is one person who will be a lesson for you. ”
"Who are you talking about?" Xu Xiaofei asked.
Lin Yan looked at him and said slowly: "Heavenly Absolute Sect Master, Shen Jinglan. ”
The man's appearance appeared in front of his eyes.
And then, under the moonlight...... It coincided with the face of the person in front of him.
Xu Xiaofei's face was a little thinner than the last time he saw it. Because it's thin, it's more like.
Lin Yan was slightly in a trance.
How can it be?
In front of Xu Xiaofei, why does he always have such an illusion?
"Is it your sect leader...... Xu Xiaofei also said in a low voice, "I've heard about him, if it were me, maybe I would follow the same path as him." ”
"If you think so, sooner or later, you will be forced to have no way out, and you can only flee into Youzhou. The law of the righteous has always been so strict. ”
"Yes, if there is a day, I will go to you. The Heavenly Absolute Sect doesn't ask about the background, as long as the person is cornered, no matter who it is, it will take it in, right?" Xu Xiaofei said, "It just so happens that I also want to see the power of Sect Master Shen, I heard that he is already recognized as the number one in the world." No. 1 in the world, how strong is it?"
"Much stronger than me. Lin Yan said, "Ten of me combined, and I am far from his opponent." ”
"Really?"
Xu Xiaofei's eyes showed a look of fascination.
While the two were talking, Shao Yuan had gradually quieted down. His massive body shrank rapidly, and finally returned to his human form, falling from among the water dragons that surrounded him.
A water dragon lifted him up and brought him to Lin Yan. The guy was asleep and didn't know how long it would take to wake up. Lin Yan casually threw him into the space magic weapon, and he didn't want to go back with a person on his back later.
"You're still not leaving?" Lin Yan said, "I know that you stayed here to distract me and delay time, because you are worried that after I restrain Shaoyuan, I will continue to hunt down Fan Jie." ”
"Don't worry, although we killed Fan Buyun and his son, we are full of extermination of the Fan family, but we have no interest in it at all. ”
Xu Xiaofei seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
He was invited by his friend Fan Jie to come to Fanjiazhuang to stay for a few days, but he didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing.
As the protagonist, he has not yet realized his calamity physique.
"So you found out. Xu Xiaofei said, "However, I also really want to make friends with you." ”
…… Was he really sure he wouldn't kill him?
Lin Yan looked at him silently. From the very beginning, he had already sensed that Xu Xiaofei's cultivation had not increased much since he left the Loose Sect.
This is definitely because Xu Xiaofei is lazy and neglects to cultivate!
When he urged the sword moves, he was indeed much more skilled than before, only his spiritual power stagnated. This was originally an unimaginable thing, because Xu Xiaofei had a talent that was difficult for ordinary people to reach, and the speed at which qi was drawn into the body was only afraid that it could be compared with the sect leader back then.
Lin Yan's eyes turned and stared at his neck.
He actually knows why.
In a flash, Lin Yan was already approaching in front of Xu Xiaofei.
He raised his hand as if intimately, as if he wanted to wrap his arms around Xu Xiaofei's shoulder.
However, he took off the white jade pendant on Xu Xiaofei's neck, which was as light as plucking a leaf from a tree.
Before Xu Xiaofei could react, he floated back again.
Lin Yan lifted the white jade pendant and looked at it.
This pendant that he specially found and gave to Xu Xiaofei, as soon as he got his hands on it, he sensed an extremely faint wisp of spiritual consciousness attached to it.
This wisp of spiritual consciousness was still faintly felt by him—because it was a wisp that he had forcibly stripped from his soul. In order to peel it out, he also lost a lot of skill.
This is also the remnant soul of "Lin Mo" left in this world.
When he gave Xu Xiaofei this thing, he seemed to inadvertently mention that in addition to self-defense, this pendant also has the effect of gathering souls and strengthening spirits......
Xu Xiaofei really remembered this sentence.
Even if I didn't pay attention to it at the time, I remembered it later.
At that time, "Lin Mo" had only died in Langya Stream not long ago. The souls of the newly deceased will not immediately return to the Netherworld, but will linger in the world for a while. If there is a spiritual weapon that can gather souls, it can absorb the remnants of souls and preserve them.
There is also a legend in the cultivation world that there is a secret method that can make the remnant soul that has been preserved in this way reattach to a physical body, so that the dead can be resurrected......
It's just that the soul that can be left behind is incomplete, and the people who are "resurrected" like this are also muddy and unconscious.
Is this a real "resurrection"?
As a last resort, Lin Yan would never consider using this method to save the sect leader's life.
But "Lin Mo" is dead. The deceased is difficult to trace, and Xu Xiaofei has only this way to go. Or Linyan has been paved, pointing out the road to him.
Lin Yan knew that he would go down this path. Despite the hopelessness of the future, there is no light in sight...... But he still had to grit his teeth and staggered down step by step.
Because he walked the same way. He could see that Xu Xiaofei was the same kind of person as him, and he had the potential to die without looking back.
From the moment Xu Xiaofei said, "This time, I will do my best to die, and I will not let you die again", this plan has emerged from Lin Yan's heart.
The main point of this plan is that the remnant soul is only a remnant soul after all, and after leaving the **, it must be forcibly retained and not let it dissipate, only by wearing the white jade pendant on the body and nourishing it with its own spiritual power day and night.
This process is huge, and even a talented person like Xu Xiaofei can't bear it. In the long run, his existing cultivation will slowly collapse.
If he relied on the pill and forcibly advanced, he could be much better. However, the realm of the pill pile was unstable, and if that was the case, he would also completely cut off the possibility of going further.
In this way, Xu Xiaofei's threat to him and the sect leader was lifted.
"What?"
Xu Xiaofei was taken aback. He didn't expect Lin Yan to suddenly make a move, and he actually snatched this inconspicuous jade pendant.
He immediately regained his composure and said, "That's just the most ordinary magic weapon for self-defense. ”
"It looks exquisite. ”
"Delicacy is exquisite, but the grade is not high. Xu Xiaofei said, "You have such a high level of cultivation, you have seen a lot of better magic weapons, right? ”
He paused and said, "Although this is not a good thing, it is my beloved thing, after you read it,...... Can you give it back to me?"
He actually smiled.
The smile is beautiful and calm.
"What if I say I can't?"
"Really, don't you pay it back?"
Xu Xiaofei was watching him.
It seemed that from his expression, he wanted to speculate about his intentions.
Seeing that Lin Yan didn't answer for a long time, it seemed that it didn't work to say anything, and with a "bang", the long sword behind his back was pulled out by his backhand.
"Then I'll have to fight for my life and get it back. His voice was gentle, but it contained an indescribable firmness.
In a flash of the sword, he had attacked.
At this moment, he seemed to have forgotten the gap in strength between them.
Lin Yan: "......"
He knew there would be such a fight.
When the villain boss meets the protagonist, no matter what, you have to fight first.
-- Not only do you have to fight, but you also have to release water.
